This is the terrifying moment a sandstorm turned the sky orange as it swept through a village in China.

Ms Sun witnessed the torrential winds causing an immense dust storm through Xilitun Village in Hengshui, Hebei, on June 11.

Footage shows residents riding electric scooters tilting due to the strong winds, battling the weather as they head home.

The severity of the weather made it difficult for the locals to keep their eyes open and navigate the road.

The filmer said: 'I felt so sorry for the farmers braving bad weather to harvest their wheat in the fields by the roadside.'

The Hengshui Meteorological Observatory issued a yellow alert for thunderstorms and strong winds, with gusts reaching level 8 or higher.
